> Unix sockets use after free - peer_wait_queue prematurely freed
>
> A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of Unix sockets(AF_UNIX). A
> server polling for data coming from a client socket may put the peer
> socket on a wait list. This peer may close the connection making
> the reference on the wait list no longer valid. A determined attacker
> could poison this memory and lead to bypassing permissions on a the socket,
> and packets being injected into the stream. This may also panic the machine.

Use CVE-2013-7446.
